Hello, I am in San Blas Mexico with a bent rudder shaft and no where to get a new Stainless steel pipe. I need a new SS pipe with a outer diameter of 2.85 inches and wall thickness .25 inches, length is 6 feet. Also my emergency tiller head and top nylon washer is broken. I pulled my rudder and the damage to the hull is minimal and I was not taking on water after the mishap. If anyone has a source for thick walled stainless steel please get back to me.
thank you much
Captain Les

I'll take a look at Industrial Metals tomorrow. If they have it, it will be at scrap prices. How can you be contacted about 3:30 pm? How close are your tolerances? 2.875'' (2 7/8'') would make more sense.
